Namibia – a country in southern Africa – gained its independence in 1990, 35 years ago, making it an amazingly young country. The history and traditions of the peoples who lived here, on the other hand, go back a long way. Thousands of years old rock paintings impressively document the earliest cultures. Modern history, on the other hand, has been dramatically shaped by colonialism and apartheid.

Against this background, the term "young GeNerATION" in the title of the exhibition refers to artists who were born at the time of independence and share a social and political affiliation. It also includes all those who explore the nature of Namibia as a newly emerging nation, including artists who were active before independence but have contributed to the current discourse in recent decades by searching for new themes and expressions.
The exhibition at the Forum Würth Chur is based on a collection of works in the Würth Collection, which was first presented to the public in 2016 at the Museum Würth in Künzelsau in cooperation with the National Art Gallery of Namibia in Windhoek.

Barren landscape, fascinating wildlife

Christina Wehrli:
Iceland - the island of fire and ice - inspires many tourists.

We also visited the well-known travel destinations, but at unusual times of the day. We were particularly impressed by the wild nature with its colors and shapes as well as the fragile animal world that we have taken to our hearts.

The program Canti rusticani (Rustic Songs) is born from the need to reconnect with the intimate, naked and rudimentary nature of the guitar: it is a return to the archē, imbued with a deep tension towards the most intrinsic dimension of sound and instrument. This search for origins is expressed through works by Italian composers of the 20th century and contemporary composers, where the poetics and artisanal sensibility are delicately inspired by the land and traditions to which they belong.
